Skiing in Beaver Creek
Beginners will lap up the attention lavished on them at the Beaver Creek ski school and will be confidently swishing down the many green runs in no time at all.
| Unlike most resorts a large number of green runs are concentrated at the summit, accessed by the Birds of Prey Express. This means that beginners can experience the magnificent views usually reserved for the more experienced skier, and ski in peace without the threat of high-speed interlopers sweeping past at a thunderous rate. Beaver Creek is an excellent resort for families – there are Kids Adventure Zones dotted all over the easterly slopes, such as Hibernating Bear Cave and Rowdy Ridge. Fabulous Fun! Whilst life on much of the mountain proceeds at a sedate pace, Grouse Mountain is a different story. This is hardcore, steep and deep. Screech Owl is well named and certainly gets the adrenaline pumping. For daring mogul aficionados, the bumps that form on Falcon Park and Osprey could often out scale a Mini Cooper. And if you are not on your knees yet, give Royal Elk Glades a whirl before calling the ambulance. Outstanding stuff. |
